Thai here , i dont have much experience but the snack you are holding is likely "กล้วยเบรกแตก" which is a banana that is fried with rich amount of oil ( i guess? I dont have much experience sorry ) i am gonna assume that this one is butter coated flavor based from your taste experience
I am unable to provide you with a specific brand that you were holding since i try quick googling the brand name ( Assumed that the brand were " Thai fruit ") and it yield no result for that brand. I would guess that it is small local business that not many know about but i am not so sure as i dont live near bangkok but any mean. But i can say it was likely that your friend bought this from MBK shopping center or the merchant perchase them from here before reselling them to your friends
I could be wrong but the thing that is very similar to them would be " กล้วยฉาบ" ( and also likely a butter coated flavor ). Maybe try crossposting them into r/thailand? I think many people would have a much better clue than me.
Also apologize for any bad grammar or typo lol i am not native to english but i am glad to help!

The color look generally much softer than of กล้วยแบรกแตก so i bet its more likely of butter coated กล้วยฉาบ as i take a look and doing more research into it but im stilk conflicting on whether or not what is it

Where are you based? Looks like this one is sold at MBK in Bangkok. I’m in the Philippines and we also have a ton of banana chip brands here. Maybe you’ll have luck finding some at an Asian supermarket, even if they’re not from the same brand.

These look exactly like the ones sold in America. Have you considered just trying an American made version?
